 band playing at The awakening by luvthesun
it is a little outdoor bar off the main strip in Varadero. They have a live band and the most beautiful view of the ocean! The band has a trombone and trumpet, they were awesome, get them to play Che Guevara(my new favorite song), they do it beautifully! We saw the view from the main strip, then we noticed the bar, so we went over only meaning to have one drink. We were with another couple(Andre and Patricia) that we met at the resort, we sat down, and listened to the music, we noticed another couple, so we asked if they wanted to sit with us, they were from Switzerland(Flavia and Dario), then we saw another couple from our hotrel, so they joined us(Mike and Tracy), then a few other people came in and we asked if they wanted to join us. All in all there was 12 of us, we were all from somewhere different and all had a different background, and we danced to the music, ate lunch,talked, laughed, and before we left, we said "cheers" in all the different languages, and then everyone said in their language "People are the same, no matter where they come from" it was unspeakable, it will be one of our most favorite memories!
Oh! And they serve their beer in frosted mugs, the top layer of the beer actually turns to ice!!!!
The frosted mug beer!! And they make a mean plate of fries!

 Mark and Lori - Xanadu by luvthesun
The Food: AMAZING!
One of the most romantic experiences ever! A beautiful building! First they bring you up to the bar, a saxophone and calssical guitar player play for while you sip on Rum Collins. They play beautifully, we bought the CD(it is really good!) They take you down to the restaurant, they seat you, we started off with a nice white Spanish Wine, they bring you the wine, put it in a win chiller on a stand beside your table, then you do the cork snifing, swirling, sip, taste, and give the waiter a nod(thank god we watch the food channel), Then musicians consisting of 2 violinists, classical guitar and a singer play for you, they ask you what would you like to hear, we said somthing classical, so the violinist(who is amazing) starts to play Pachabels Canon-our wedding song-well I started to cry. But he played it perfectly!!!!!!! We bought their CD, it is a good one to! I ordered shrimp and lobster my husband veal medallions, It was an awesome meal! It wasn't cheap but for the bottle of wine, our meal, dessert it came out to $95, which is better than anything at the Keg. After that they drove us back to the hotel in a golf cart, they took the golf coarse way along the shore, it was so romantic, the moon was up, you could hear the waves on the shore, you could see the moons reflection on the water, it was warm, the ocean breeze blowing in your hair, holding hands, it was perfect.

The lobster tail and the chicken skewers are mouth watering. You can watch the care that goes into the preparation of your meal because it is cooked on the grill in front of your eyes by chef Alfredo. And if you don't try one of Wilfredo's BEST MOJITO you will never know why it is THE BEST.

Being so fond of singing and salsa dancing no wonder that Cuban people are not too much into their food ...The Cuban cuisine is slightly dissapointing considering its rich influences - Spanish, French, African Arabic, the vegetables, fruits and spicies available and excellent fish and seafood.
Probably the embargo and the shortage of food for locals contributes to this lack of imagination...
But still you could have plenty of nice dishes based on lobster - the grilled one is a simple and delicious one - unfortunately didnt manage to get ever some slices of lemon and only once managed to get some nice garlic pasta (sort of aioli), shrimps, tuna and some nice paella (recommended to be ordered in a paladar)..
Paladares and the seafood from different trips (diving ones to Carribean Wreck & Bay of Pigs) were a nice change to our All Inclusive food from the hotel.
Some Cuban traditional dishes:
- Ropa Vieja (shredded beef)
- Arroz con Pollo (chicken and yellow rice)
- Moros (black beans and rice)
- Platanos Dulces Fritos (fried sweet plantains)
- Coconut cakes (which we adored:) Leave a Comment Theme: Local
